I focused the camera to infinity and had mounted in the shoe a lightning detector built by a friend of mine. It has a 2 micro-second response time. You tune it for the ambient lighting conditions and once it detects a change in light intensity, it triggers the shutter.

If you click on the thumbnail, it displays the image full-size. The embedded image stays the size that it displays as in the message. Good to know.

Here is a few shots of mine while out and about roaming the hills This 1 is up in the Lake District with Englands highest peak on the right covered in cloud This is Ingleborough,the second highest peak in the Yorkshire Dales National park.One of the peaks of the 3 peak challenge which is 24.5 miles to be done in under 12 hours. These 2,both the same picture only one has a clour shift effect added are of another of the peaks in the 3 peak challenge called Pen-y-Ghent This one is of a stone monument built to comemorate the the defeat of Napoleon, managed to capture the sun in just the right place to give a halo effect. And this last 1 is of my home town,Hudderfield taken yesterday in the snow with Emly Moor T.V mast in the distance,the tallest free standing structure in the U.K. BigD0g, EXTRAKAMIKAZE QC, Millpucky and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
